‏ @WWSGAO seems to be the official account for their graduate admissions office.

Thank you! One more thing to obsess over.

Indeed!  Remember the good ole days of undergrad, before there was Twitter and Facebook and your admission decisions came by snail mail?  Things were simpler then...

Come on WWS, you're killing me.

I feel like today is the day. So much anxiety!!!

[biscuits]

Sending all of the WWS hopefuls good thoughts today. Deep breaths!

Yeah I woke up 45 minutes before my alarm today feeling nervous. I have two good options right now, so it's not as if everything is riding on WWS. Plus I've known from the start that it's a total longshot. But I can't quite give up hope yet. Eek!

Tomorrow it is I guess.  Can't wait to know what my options are, I've been waking up multiple times every night this week to check my email - thanks 15 hour time difference.

I was hoping WWS decisions would come out today as well.  I'm in Washington, DC so while I'm on edge during normal business hours (EST), I feel like I can relax in the evening and get a good night's sleep.  I can't imagine being 15 hours ahead -- you must be exhausted!  Hang in there, we'll know for sure tomorrow! 

 

GOOD LUCK!

[waltlaa9]

Yep, tomorrow I guess. I sympathize with the sleeplessness -- even though I know nothing is going to happen after business hours, I'm still losing sleep. One of the interpreters at work recently called me out on my red-eyed and generally bad appearance hahah. WWS is my reach school but I feel (naively?) hopeful. Good luck!!

By this time tomorrow ......

[Arkibarki]

Anyone else that is unable to focus at work today?... 

[When in doubt]

This is unbearable! :-( 

 

Just tell me I didn't get in and end my misery.

Admitted! Yaay! E-mail came at 10:28

Waitlisted! Oh man, while not an acceptance, I am still shaking like a leaf in happiness. I really did not expect to get admitted so even this is amazing.

[When in doubt]

I GOT IN! 

[fenderpete]

Congrats to everyone who got in!

[CreamTea]

Did not get in

[gatsby8724]

It's a no for me as well.  No good, very bad week for admissions decisions.

 

Two to go -- here's hoping I have some better luck next week!

 

Congratulations to everyone who got in!

[jessisn]

Does anyone know how many applications WWS receives vs their admissions rate? Just out of curiosity!

[gatsby8724]

Did not get in

 

ASEANdumpling, out of curiosity -- what did the second paragraph of your notification say?

[gradphil]

Congrats to everyone who got in!

 

Dear Fenderpete!

Unfortunately I could not get in. However, it was quite visible to me as my SOP was not good, neither were test scores. As I plan to apply in the next fall, definitely with improved scores, does WWS provide feedback, should I so choose to solicit?

[sherpa07]

Denied!  Oh well, no surprise.  Congrats everyone!

[When in doubt]

Their intake rate is 11% ... they get 800 odd applicants (approximately) and admit around 80 or so. 

[lacanadiense]

Out. Not surprised after getting dinged by HKS, but still sad nonetheless. At least I won't be spending the next two years in suburban New Jersey, I guess.
